What do you think of Aria's new food hall? Would you eat here?
Definitely plan to check it out.
I LOVE THE FOOD HALL TOO
We would try it. We are from NY so we would pass on the Bagel and Pizza because well NY. Otherwise yes it looks good. The question is….would you go back and eat there again? If so, what was the best item?
the buffet must come back
Nope🍷
Bring back the Buffet 😢
Thanks you two for showing me where I won’t be eating when I come into town.
Good, this helps narrow down my choices, this place is off my list!
I agree, nothing there impressed me at all.
Thank you for the info. Looks like the new Aria food court should be avoided entirely. Derek and Catherine just got fleeced royally. In the neighborhood of around a hundred dollars for doughy bread (pita, bagel, pizza, rice) filled fast food. Really? These new "cell phone restaurants" are a gimmick that will probably be very short lived. Thanks for taking one for the team.
I hate the fact that since the pandemic, so many buffets have closed permanently, I do not want to go to a casino, that I have to leave to go get something to eat. The buffets were perfect. Everybody is able to get what they want…
That’s just it, with labour and food costs they realize buffets are not worth it to maximize their profit margin.
I agree with you so much
@vegasnative6394 I agree! I love the buffets in Vegas. The buffets are so convenient and easy access from the casino area.
Casinos in the past did not expect to make a profit on buffets. They were a loss leader to draw people in and also keep them there. Bean counting accountants are now in charge.
@@yaoming2264 in atlantic cirt they closed the trop buffet was good for breakfast 20 dollars they say it lost but they are now owned by cesars and they could take a loss the casinos are heartless closing pompano tacetrack because the state said they could run ww casino alone now many industry workers and fans affected they could accept the loss to keep jobs how many billions do you need
The Aria doesn't know it yet but people overall will now avoid this place and go some place else to eat. There's something unique about a Vegas hotel and casino that offers a Buffet restaurant....
That said the return to the Aria is likely going to be better from this food hall versus a buffet.
Buffets are dying. A food court might be more profitable.
They ended the buffet at every Caesars property besides Caesars itself, proving your statement false.
@@otrebla8944 if it is a unique food court like the one in resorts world, this one in Aria has nothing stand out, totally passable
I agree. Buffets are a legendary staple there.
getting rid of buffets in vegas is like new york without time square
I'm not really a fan of food halls, it reminds me of the mall food courts from the 90s. One of the fun dining experiences used to be the Vegas buffets before the pandemic shut them down
Thanks for showing us all the options at the Aria Food Hall. I didn’t find it all that appealing and the prices were quite high. One of my favourite things to do in Vegas used to be the buffets and I wish that they all weren’t disappearing. I especially liked the venue for the Paris buffet. Thanks for another fun video.
I agree with you 100%.........
$5 each for reheated Pizzaoki slices, the cheapest stuff in the Aria "Food Hall." Mall food court food. Private equity looters are ripping off the Las Vegas tourists.
This seems like a mistake from Aria. One of the key draws of Las Vegas is to overindulge on food from the buffets.
Profits on buffet was probably low. At the price of the food court, the profits on food court are certainly higher. Add the opportunity cost on buffets: people eating there do not eat at a much more profitable restaurant.
None of that looked worth the money
It’s not a mistake the product is not available like in the past world trade was effected by Putin and his stupid war of 3, days. Less cheap products available jobs can’t pay people to keep showing up imagine 2 busy days then zero clients. The stupidity of the president not putting a clause on the nation to not raise prices homes rents gas groceries, now nobody can afford shit. Thanks to the Biden voters I’m sure they now realize Trump was right. Wait till they surprise you with higher prices and nothing available?
@@jeanjasinczuk7543 greed most are high priced and a loss is no big deal
@@jeanjasinczuk7543 I assume they did their market research but i always assumed the point of the buffets was to draw people in who then spend money in other areas like gambling, not for the profit on the food. Not sure a food court will be the same draw, but some of the food courts are insanely packed so who knows.
I would enjoy a buffet much more. A good buffet is an attraction, a food court is a nuisance.
In theory, a Food Hall sounds interesting, either for having a quick snack or to offer a group of visitors a variety of food choices. However, both the Aria and Resort World food halls are failures, both for the same reasons. 1. The food offered is far too expensive and offer little value at those costs. 2. At those prices, I don’t want to be the cashier and the food server to save them on labor costs. I bet those screens have an option to add a tip. 😶 3. Limited food choices at each outlet. Wexlers had 6 bagel options and 2 sandwiches. Each outlet had a 1 page menu. Saves the company on food and labor costs, but it does not make for a good dining experience. 4. Limited options for customizing your chosen foods. I saw the food screens had options to remove toppings, but nothing for adding toppings. At this point value restaurants like America at NY-NY and Hollywood Cafe at Planet Hollywood are better options with a huge selection of meals.
Well said. You could even goto In N Out for some bargain burgers. Also FOR THOSE PRICES I’ll go to Gordon Ramsay or Wolfgang Puck & get the best food in the world. Not this food court crap
.
So you can choose from a wide variety food items like a buffet; but instead of paying one flat price everything is a la carte. What a cutting edge concept. Sorry, Vegas that's a hard no.
I.will.forever miss the Indian Station at the Aria buffet . . That was the real deal Derrick .
That was our favorite!
Saw them prices, that's a biiiiig nooo.
I wasn't impressed the choices were slim and it's all the same stuff. When I see a place advertise themselves as a deli, I expect a giant pastrami or corned beef sandwich. I'm not sure why the buffet is going but it's definitel must be a bean counter's decision! Love your videos, keep them coming.
This is a fail for Aria. Cool place if you're staying there but to visit this place strictly to eat? That's a no go for me. Everything looked very questionable especially the prices(Vegas, I know). The sushi looked like it wasn't even cut up properly like they used a butter knife. And to get just 1 short piece of kabab from the other spot what's up with that? Thank you guys so much for reviewing places like these so we don't have to waste our time and money. 👍
Very expensive as compared to a buffet 😢
The food looked ok. Disappointing they replaced the buffet with a food court.
Great review as always guys!! 👏
It's a shame they removed the buffet. While not overly large, at$40 per person, that buffet was one of the best values on the strip. Even moreso with the myvegas BOGO. It was one of the best things about aria and was a hidden gem. Now it's just a casino I have no problem walking right on by.
Omg we met you this day!! We ate there all weekend pretty much and you should try the burgers!! They are amazing!! And yes agree moneyline is better than pizzoki! We also ate at Aria Pasterrie! It was amazing meeting you both!! Hopefully we will run into you both again in our next visit in May!
Nice meeting you too!
If most ppl avoid eating at these places then casinos will be forced to bring back buffets
I'll bet this place asks for a tip even though you have to go around and pick up your own food.
That’s pretty darn expensive. You can have an amazing steak dinner for some of those prices. I know inflation is in play. It’s just becoming outrageous. But I love your reviews guys!!
Love listening to Catherine. She has a lovely voice and is so sweet and polite. Derek is great too, but Catherine is so enjoyable. Please forgive me if I spelled your names wrong. Thanks for the video. Great as always.
Not my type of food but it is so fun watching you two try different things.
Food Hall looked like a chopped up buffet with different sections. All seemed very septic from ordering and the non melody Aria environment. Enjoyed the descriptions of menu items and waiting to see the Derek and Catherine special on the board some day.
so aria divided the buffet into sections to make more money
$28.00 for a bagel. A hard pass on all of this "food court" stuff. I can find better food for less at my local mall. Seems like the Aria has blown it.
If your ever stuck at the delta terminal in LAX, you can get a bagel and cream cheese at Homeboys bakery for under $5 and it’s so good.
I can get the same thing at Walmart for $1
For sure
The reason the price is high cause it come with Caviar! Caviar is always high.. its a splurge..
Prices seemed a bit high for what was on offer & the menus seemed limited
I think the bagel and kabob orders looked great! 🎉 However that sushi looked rough from the get-go, lack of presentation big time for the price!!😮 As for the pizza, I think Costco food court looks way better, cheaper too! I love your videos and thank you for keeping us all in the loop for the latest happenings in Las Vegas ❤
Thing is, the casinos need to have a draw so they can get us in and make a profit. nothing exciting at that food hall. And way too expensive
I haven't been to Las Vegas since 2010. I don't think I miss anything. There are many interesting places to explore 😉
Vegas has become nothing more than a tourist trap. Resort fees,overpriced food and you name it.
I'm sorry I just seen your first Aria buffet video (4 years ago) and that food looked way better than this new video. Big mistake especially since they no longer have the $60.00 all day pass. Big mistake!
Not my choice of place to eat but some very extravagant choices available - thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for trying. At those prices it looks too expensive for the choices and quality of the food. I was waiting for a review of the korean fried chicken, but you passed ! The sky is falling Derek.
Wow Strip prices $3.75 per bite lobster queen.
WAY too much money for everything anymore...UGH
I am guessing but I am gonna say the food court will be very expensive......... The prices being charged in most of these places in Vegas are a complete joke and price gouge
You got that right. Crazy expensive
Very true. I live here and love it, but there are so many great places to eat off the Strip for less than half the price.
That expensive sushi reminded me of going to Resorts world and getting 3 or 4 pot stickers for $20.
Thank you for allowing us to be a guest at your table
What a disappointment! It was all way too expensive for what you guys received.
Good Video!
Now we all know where not to go.
I was just there Friday and had no idea they replaced the buffet with a food court. I probably wouldn't have patronized either of them though.
Sounds really expensive. Doesn't sound great.
This seems like a place you eat at only because you were already at Aria and didn't want to head out of the building.
Not a fan of the over priced buffets as I don’t eat my moneys worth. And this new food hall won’t get me in the Aria either.
I agree. The Sushi was a bit over priced for what you got.
I agree with you guys that the sushi probably wasn’t worth the price - the sushi did not appear pressed properly and they looked like they were on the verge of falling apart
Lobster typically is never worth the price at most restaurants, let alone a restaurant within a casino in Vegas. Sushi is not supposed to be compressed too hard and should be on the verge of coming apart once you eat it.
Those prices are bonkers.
Agree with most of the comments that this new food hall doesn't come close to providing the interest of a buffet.
I could tell those pizza slices was not your favorite as well as those rolls😂
most interesting observations. thank you
Prices are ridiculous.
3:43 - dont forget to hand sanitize after using those computer order menus. just sayin’. ❤
I would love and think a Disneyland food review could be spectacular. Good stuff
We always try different buffets in Vegas. Our last trip we were at the MGM Grand. My wife and I decided to eat all of our meals at the MGM food court. It wasn’t bad. Only there for 3 days, so we ate something different every meal. Sometimes you have to try other stuff 👍
Go to local places please
The food there doesn't look too appealing. The Aria hotel should not have removed their buffet.
We just got back from staying at the Aria for 5 nights. We been to the Aria buffet back in the day, but this trip we enjoyed the food hall for quick eats. Love the egghead for breakfast, Seoul Bird, Laughing Buddha ramen & that donuts from Easy Donuts! 🤙🌺
IMHO, the Aria made a mistake when they replaced the buffet (which was great) with this weird food court. They also made a mistake when they got rid of the Aria Cafe, as there is no longer a true coffee shop on the premises. They could have located Din Tai Fung somewhere else on the property.
They just moved it upstairs, where Herringbone was before. But I agree. Aria Cafe was a great place to eat.
@@SonnyDK You are referring to "Salt & Ivy," which has limited hours and is a tiny fraction of the size that the Aria Cafe used to be.
A fun food review. Thanks Derek & Catherine.😎
So they turned buffet stations into a food court.
No thanks
Really enjoyed this! Thank you for the take along!😇😇
Love all the new content
👍🏻 Thnxs for bringing the video’s
Absolutely no reason to go to that casino. Now its al-la-cart. see ya
No buffet, I refuse to watch. 🤣🤣🤣
The food looked delicious. But guys, you'll perhaps think me a little overly sensitive, but the gold flakes on the Moe Green (looked wonderful otherwise) - almost angered me . Take the money it costs to buy the silly, silly gold flakes, and help an animal shelter! The waste there borders on the obscene. Again, and other than that momentary (albeit true) response, the stuff looked yummy. (Given your penchant for fried chicken, I'm surprised the Korean Fried fare was not part of your initial sampling ). Definitely a pretty solid, higher quality "food court." Good destination. Thank you as always.
This is so sad, loved the place!
I know the bagel is gimmicky but wow it looked good
OK for a quick lunch - but a buffet IS Vegas!
I was waiting for you to try the Korean fried chicken. I know how you like your chicken!
Another fab video, ty. ❤
What a shame that was one of our favorite buffet
Hi Derek & Catherine! Hope you both are doing well. I’m surprised no more buffet at the Aria. I probably would try the burger place and egghead. Awesome review 👌 Can’t wait for your next video. Happy eating. Have a fantastic week!
I just skimmed your channel and I don’t see a review of pizza rock. It’s one of our favorites in Vegas. Would love to see that video.
Awesome review!!!!
DEREK AND CATHERINE I LOVE THE BUFFET TOO MY FRIEND AND THE BUFFET SOUNDS GOOD TO ME TOO
Can’t wait to watch this,your videos always make me so hungry 😋
OMG 😳😃😃🙂 love it 💗 Detroit Michigan 😊😁💯
this is set up a lot like the mgm grand casino just outside of dc, in mad. no buffets, just a food court of sorts.
I can't decide if I like food halls over the buffets since I eat small and buffets are getting pretty wild in the price. But, I still love the vibe of the buffets. It's just so Vegas. We ate at proper eats recently too. Pizza was ok but I'd agree that there are better ones out there. We got a burger from Lola's and it was top notch! Just don't get the fries. Hah. Thanks for showing the other options so I know what to try next time. 🤓
The food hall is fun, but I'll always prefer a buffet!
I heard from Shin's video that the buffet closed. Glad I got to try it once. I do love the Aria for some reason.
11:45 ... How did you hide the dissapointment so well? $30 FOR THAT? It's maybe $8 of lobster... I would have returned it.
The pizza looked lame. Costco pizza for $1.99 is not only a crazy low price, but it's some of the best NY pizza anywhere!
I sure wasn't expecting sushi as a "lobster roll"... and no freakin way would I ever pay $30 for a small tray of hockey pucks like that.
Everything there looked disappointing to me.
The Mediterranean food looked -ok-.
Your recent video to the food hall at aria was good. I would not try. Not enough places to choose from. Thanks for your review.
Looks like they are trying to be to upscale style food NOT for the average person who would have went to a great Buffet
A Food Hall I will never eat at lol
Wow that’s some experience rolls no way 😮
Still the price you paid for the things you could have a great buffet meal
It looks like the packaging would be very costly and then thrown away. Very wasteful. Enjoy you two very much. I'm all for a good buffet with lots of meat and seafood.
I notice they have an reduced menu at all locations, I guess the variety of places helps that. I think its time for another buffet, and we can hear Derek say, " lets see what there is to eat ".
Now I know, no need to walk all that way and check out. I love your excitement and exploration, but even you two had a tough time with this food court-hall-court-halllll
It would be interesting to see what the food at Lolas Burgers is like. Enjoyed watching this video. Thanks.
Derek, have you been holding back on us? This video was shot over 2 weeks ago, that’s when that football game behind you was played….
Sadly, our experience at the Aria Buffet in August 2019 was NOTHING like your video. No gorgeous pile of meat, etc. Aria may possibly bring in more cash with this food court. Omg, ha ha ... your underwhelment with the pizza was SO obvious ha ha ha
An Indian casino opened in my town with a food court instead of a buffet, I will probably never go there.
Oh yea i would eat there 😋😋👍
I did like the Egghead sandwich there, it was really good and no line like eggslut. All the other restaurants however were very mediocre for the price.
